What is even happening?

So, anyone here ever try to figure out petals around the rose?
I figured it out quickly--like in 5 minutes. Apparently, that means I am dumb.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Well, it took me like 30-40, but I think it's true that it may be harder to solve the smarter you are.

I'll never figure it out because I'll click twice, go oh this is one of those math/pattern things I suck at , get bored and wander off. Which is just what I did.

By those standards, I must be fucking brilliant.

It would be nice to believe that but given what reality is demonstrating to me currently.....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Well, I'm pretty sure I figured it out after like 3-4 tries, and I'm really freaking smart.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I cheated. I found a comment that said the name of the game is important, and then it was easy enough. I don't think it's about how smart you are, more like how hard you think.

I don't even think it's about how hard you think, just about how your mind jumps around. If they didn't give me the right answer when I was wrong, it would have taken me much longer. I backtracked it some.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

The obvious solution is to get a new video game, Kalshane.

Heh. I still have the original Knights of the Old Republic installed, but completely unplayed on my PC. I don't think I need to buy anything else that will most-likely spend 6 months to a year (or more) just taking up disk space.

Though when the new video card gets here, maybe I'll play that. My old one could run it, but not at the max settings.

Then again, I still have an almost finished game of Baldur's Gate II on my hard drive as well. Though that one certainly doesn't need better hardware.

So, anyone here ever try to figure out petals around the rose?

I got it in 3 to 4 tries. So either I'm really smart (or really dumb, depending on the theory) or I only think I figured it out and have just been making lucky guesses.

Petals spoilers

I just looked, and said, well the center's gotta be the rose, and counted. It took me a little time to get there, but yeah, dummy.

Also ita, I looked up stuff on it later, because I'd never heard of it, and was wondering if I should send it to school with Ben. Other sites offer that bit about the name as part of the game, not a cheat. In other words, it is how they introduce the game.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

I tried it three times and realized it was the kind of maddening thing I hate and I could do it like 50 gazillion times and never get the right answer. And furthermore not care very much. So does that mean I'm and Einstein or a putz?

And I still love Jesse even though she likes Dr. Phil. Different life coaches for different folks.

You're an Einstein quitter putz, kat.
